Law, state and the family : the politics of child custody.
No full textLaw State and the Family: the Politics of Child
Custody is an examination of the development of law
and legal practices in relation to mothers and the
legal custody of children. It maps the history of
statute law and re-reads legal practice focusing
upon the way in which these practices reproduce and
sustain the conditions of motherhood.
The first section documents the construction of
the infant as a legal subject and the emergence of
mothers legal rights in relation to children under the
nineteenth century Guardianship Acts. The second
section examines debates regarding the role of the
state in the area of children and divorce following
the Second World War. This section also examines
the influence of ideologies of welfare upon the legal
treatment of different categories of children during
this period. In addition, this section also analyses
the limited role which the law plays in the majority
of decisions concerning custody of children following
divorce. The third section documents and analyses
women's experiences of contesting custody of their
children through an empirical study of a sample of
lesbian mothers. The focus is upon both the courts
and legal processes involving lawyers and divorce
court welfare officers. This section reveals the
influences of notions of good mothering and perceptions
of female sexuality upon those legal processes.
The final section is concerned with contemporary
debates in the 1980s regarding the role of the state
generally in the area of children and divorce and
particularly, discussions of the role of law in constructing children's relationships with fathers.
This section addresses the issues of 'joint custody'
of children and conciliation schemes through a
discussion of the implications of these practices in
America. This section concludes with a discussion
of the general trend away from 'law' and legal rules
in this area, towards 'private ordering' in conciliations. Finally, it sets out the implications of
that trend for feminist discussions of future policy
in the area of children and divorce in Britain
Postmodernita hledá postgender: Brophy, Winterson a Place
No full textPostmodernita hledá postgender: Brophy, Winterson a Place (Abstrakt) Práce se zabývá třemi formálně velmi odlišnými texty, publikovanými v letech 1969, 1993 a 2013, které tvořivě přistupují ke genderové binaritě a rozvracejí ji: In Transit od Brigid Brophy, Written on the Body od Jeanette Winterson a Boycott Vanessy Place. V návaznosti na koncepci postmodernismu u Jeana-Françoise Lyotarda jakožto modernismu ve stádiu věčného zrodu přichází autorka s hypotézou "postgenderu". Ten nicméně neznačí překonání genderu jednou provždy (jak je termín často chápán, například v díle Rosi Braidotti), ale strukturní pohyb, možnost subverze v jádru každého genderového schématu a v současnosti tedy i genderismu, čili přesvědčení, že gender je nutně dvojí a že aspekty naší genderové identity jsou neoddělitelně spjaté s pohlavím, které nám bylo přiřazeno při narození. Kromě feministické teorie a literární kritiky se práce také dotýká oboru transgenderových studií, psychoanalýzy, filosofie historie a především díla Jacquesa Derridy. Práce se tak snaží formulovat pojem postgenderu jako neodmyslitelnou součást postmoderní situace a završení moderního rozštěpení subjektu, což se odráží v jistém kulturním příklonu ke genderu v průběhu 90. let. Práce nicméně zůstává zakotvena na poli literární kritiky, neboť jejím hlavním zájmem...Postmodernity's Search for Postgender: Bropy, Winterson and Place (Abstract) The thesis examines three formally very diverse texts published in 1969, 1993 and 2013 respectively that creatively approach and subvert the gender binary: Brigid Brophy's In Transit, Jeanette Winterson's Written on the Body and Vanessa Place's Boycott. Based on Jean-François Lyotard's conception of postmodernism as modernism in a constantly nascent state, the author advances a hypothesis of "postgender." This however does not mean overcoming gender for good (as it is sometimes understood, for example by Rosi Braidotti), but as a structural momentum, a possibility of subversion at the heart of any gender schema and currently therefore of genderism, i.e. the belief that gender is necessarily binary and that aspects of our gender are inherently linked to our sex assigned at birth. Apart from feminist theory and literary criticism, the thesis also touches on the field of transgender studies, psychoanalysis, philosophy of history and most importantly the work of Jacques Derrida. In so doing it tries to articulate the notion of postgender as part and parcel of the condition of postmodernity and a culmination of the modern split of the subject, leading to a certain cultural gender turn during the 1990s. The work nevertheless remains...Department of Anglophone Literatures and CulturesÚstav anglofonních literatur a kulturFilozofická fakultaFaculty of Art
Diffusive author(s), cohesive author: Analysis of S/N (1994)
No full textThis study indicates the ways in which various aspects of the author(s) are brought forth in Dumb type’s performance art, the S/N production. Previous research has suggested a non-hierarchical organization of Dumb type and the absence of a “privileged author” in Dumb type’s collaborative work, S/N. However, the results that I have investigated from member’s interviews on the creative process of S/N along with my analysis of the recorded images of S/N, indicate a different aspect of the author(s). First, S/N was created through, so to speak, the collective ideas of the members of Dumb type. Further, S/N has at least nine quotations from previous performances, installations, and printed writings, besides the work-in-progress technique. Explicating one of the “author functions” as given by Michel Foucault, each text has plural subjects of the author. However, it has been revealed from members’ interviews that Teiji Furuhashi had a decision-making role in selecting the members’ ideas within the performance. Since then, S/N has had plural subjects of creation; however, Furuhashi is one of the subjects of creation along with the “privileged author.” S/N has plural authors (diffusive authors) yet at the same time, it has a “privileged author,” Teiji Furuhashi (cohesive author)
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
